I don't believe Michael Jordan actually said that.
Somebody else said he said that, and with social media being what is is, some people believe it.
Edit: here's a link about that http://www.snopes.com/media/notnews/jordanshoes.asp
It was satire.

It was satire, man.
From the link I posted.
"Several black activists have accused Michael Jordan of not doing enough for the black community complaining that even his shoes are too expensive for most black youths, a charge Jordan has answered himself by saying, “I make shoes for white suburban kids, not the poor black kids. That would be like opening a restaurant for people without stomachs.”
"While the Celebtricity article, much like the Naha Daily story, IS A WORK OF FICTION, it does touch on a genuine issue."
He did not say that PERIOD.

Saying you make shoes only for white suburban kids and taking a public dump on Chamillionaire are two completely different things. One never happened and the other is funnier than Hell. It's no secret that MJ is a douche, there are plenty of stories out there that confirm his savagery. The reason that satire story was humorous is because of his antics.

I think it's technically a remake. Doesn't make it any less brilliant, hell, even Ben Hur was a remake..

Yep. Maybe the argument could be made if MJ was long deceased but that obviously isn't the case anymore. It's not as if MJ is like Chuck Taylor where most people who wear the dude's shoes don't even know who he is.

It's ironic you ask him that question because I'm honestly not 100% convinced his account isn't satire.

Haven't been in this thread for a minute. Just a bunch of madness these last few pages lol.
Anyways I wore these at the fair on July 4th. Wore them all day with plenty of walking and I can say this is probably the most comfortable 1 I've ever owned.

My pair has a defect too, the T(TM) on the wing logo is missing half of its lower body, but everything else on the shoe is legit(including the box), got my pair on a local Facebook group, had the receipt(paid 250).
